    I agree with most of JT reply.

    My stance in my first reply was to try and say that whilst by-laws are an effective tool In strata, they need to be used judiciously.

    If a non by-law way can’t be used to convince owners to fit working smoke alarms, then the application of  bylaw can lead to lawyers at 20 paces. For me its just  common sense to have them fitted and working. But sense is not so  ommon sometimes.

    And yes some strata managers propose bogus by laws

    If using section 122, one needs to be careful that the action is lawful, even if there is a bylaw. Trespass is a serious offence.
